New Year, New Beginnings.
On with the show!
I’m really enjoying my new headphones! That aside, I think we kicked off the new year with a great choice of movie, Studio Ghibli’s Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea (崖の上のポニョ). Studio Ghibli usually delivers good work, and watching the movie made me miss our trip to the Studio Ghibli Museum.
It was funny to hear Joe Augustin on Power 98 yesterday ranting on about how the theme song got stuck in his head after watching it, and how he’s going to inflict the same on everyone else by playing the song on national radio. The theme song didn’t affect me so much as the musical score; in particular the scene when Ponyo was running atop the waves to Sosuke was reminded me very much of Wagner’s Ride of the Valkyries.
